Help! My Kids Don’t Know How to Do Anything : Building Life Skills This Summer :: Katie Kimball [Ep 525]

Today Katie Kimball is here to show us how to help our kids gain life skills that last and contribute to the family. Katie founded a program called Life Skills Now which covers topics from oil changes, to cooking, to entrepreneurship. She shares that competence equals confidence and with the rise of anxiety and depression, we want to give our kids all of the confidence and skills to succeed in this world. Summer is a perfect time to begin! Here are some topics we cover:

Why parenting can't be put on autopilot- we need to shift and change constantly
A list of 100 practical, emotional, and intellectual skills your kids can learn
Breaking chores into doable chunks instead of “just go clean the bathroom”
How to create a "Summer Skills List" with your kids that fosters ownership and choice
How to teach them skills that are hands-on, minds-on, hearts-on
How critical thinking and open-ended questions shape kids' future decision-making
